Having imported from America, the fruit was expensive.
Correction: Having been imported from America, the fruit was expensive.
Explanation: The passive voice "having been imported" should be used instead of "having imported."
It is his dishonesty what I dislike the most.
Correction: It is his dishonesty that I dislike the most.
Explanation: After "it is," we use "that" instead of "what" to introduce a noun clause.
Although her poor health, she works twelve hours a day.
Correction: Although she has poor health, she works twelve hours a day.
Explanation: "Although" needs a full clause, so you need the subject "she" and the verb "has" to form a complete sentence.
Verbal bullying happens when people keep telling lies or bad things about you behind your back.
Correction: Verbal bullying happens when people keep telling lies or saying bad things about you behind your back.
Explanation: "Telling lies" is correct, but "bad things" should be "saying bad things" for parallel structure with "telling."
